Jim Cramer has shifted from a strong supporter of Corning (GLW) to advising caution. In September he said he wouldn't buy the stock at current levels after it dropped $25, preferring to wait for a lower price. The article also notes Corning's optical communications business grew revenue 32% and net income 77% year-over-year in Q2, reaching $2 billion and $438 million respectively.
Corning's stock concerns about a roughly $2 billion share dilution have faded, and the company has secured a multibillion-dollar fiber deal tied to AI demand.
Jim Cramer told viewers of Mad Money to wait for Corning (GLW) to fall further before buying, pointing to a $2 billion stock sale the company is running. Corning disclosed on September 11 that it entered an agreement with Goldman Sachs to sell up to $2 billion of common stock through an at-the-market offering program, which gradually dumps shares onto the open market each day. Despite the near-term selling pressure, CFO Ed Schlesinger said at a September 9 conference that optical demand was "very strong" with good visibility for several years.
A law firm is investigating Corning (GLW) on behalf of investors over whether the company and some of its officers and directors broke securities laws. The investigation focuses on Corning's September 11, 2026 announcement of a $2 billion stock sale run through Goldman Sachs, after which the share price dropped sharply. (Note: the article labels Corning's ticker as COO; GLW is Corning's actual ticker.)
